Democratic political strategist James Carville expressed frustration with the state of his party on his podcast Thursday, arguing that Republicans are able to get away with lying while Democrats are held to a higher standard of credibility.
Talking to guest Ryan Lizza, a journalist, he said, "People say to me all the time, ‘James, why don’t we do like the Republicans do? Just stand up and lie?’ Because our f---ing people wouldn’t stand for it!" Carville said. "If I was to stand up and lie, you would be the first person to stand up and say, ‘James Carville lost all credibility last night when he said X, Y and Z.’"

Comment:
Oh the irony.
Carville is lying about the Democrats lying all of the time.
The MSM has an amazing tolerance for Democrat lying.
And the MSM tirelessly scrutinizes the Republicans.
Has Carville lost his mind or is he confident that the shitfedsheep Regressive Progressives will parrot his baloney?
This one broke my BS meter.

Who has been kicked out of the Republican party for what in recent decades?
Was anyone kicked out in recent decades?
What was it for?


Who has been kicked out of the Democrat's party for what in recent decades?
Was anyone kicked out in recent decades?
What was it for?

The media holds Democrats to a much higher standard.

If any Democratic politician lied as much as Trump, it would be headline news every single day. But with Trump, it's just a typical Tuesday.

What a weird and creepy post.

You are a Trump supporter.

Your lack of self awareness is kind of amazing.

Dems are 100% all in on TDS again. so they put out a lot of biased noise. Trump is all over the place. I've learned not to put much stock in anything he says -just what he does

Politicians all lie and embellish. Which is why i've always maintained listening to any politician is a waste of time

 

[Callen]

Carville needs to go suck a zube

What was it for?

The compulsive liar who said he was Jewish, but latter said , No, I said was Jew-ish!

debbie wasserman schultz for rigging the DNC against letting the Voters pick Sanders.

The compulsive liar who said he was Jewish, but latter said , No, I said was Jew-ish!

How many votes did it take to expel Santos?

debbie wasserman schultz for rigging the DNC against letting the Voters pick Sanders.

imho,
the fact DWS is Co-Chair of the Steering and Policy Committee for the Democratic party
at least implies that she may still retain her party membership.

ymmv

Those weren't lies. Just hard truths that cry baby traitor MAGAs don't want to hear.

The lack of introspection is a serious problem on the radical left.
They believe their own lies.
And the MSM is an echo chamber for Democrat Cult lying.
Carville knows that he is lying, but he knows that sheep will eat it up.

How many times did the GOP vote to keep George Santos in Congress?​

 

[Athanasius68]

Joe Biden is on top of his game...

Not only did the Democrats lap it up, they voted for the man in the primaries by the millions...

And the media said nothing.

Carville, as always, is talking nonsense.

 

[BabaVoss]

The trumpers have embraced lying as the way to get what you want.
After all, it has worked for trump.
The dems tend to hold themselves to a higher standard.
Still, all politicians lie at some point.

 

[Slartibartfast]

Carville is largely correct. Dems to hold themselves accountable and the general public has that same expectation. I am sure there are minor exceptions here and there.

That in and of itself is a rather weird concession. I'm not sure why we should ever put ourselves in a position where we have to accept that standard. There will always be a gap between what someone says and their actions, but it's a matter of degrees we only accept in small gaps, not chasms. The one thing that's more revealing now is we're getting to see more directly what actions he's making, which while bad in one sense, is good in another because if this experiment goes sideways it will serve to never elect this kind of low caliber leader ever again.

Biden was a crooked family and Harris a laughing hyena . Thats true- not bias.
Biden said the most miserable things about Republicans/MAGA many time called them fascist ( or "semi-fascists" -whatever)
I didn't get upset about it, because Biden and the Dems have been using that language ever since Trump showed up. they still do.

I "accepted that standard" because i was much more focused on Bidens wasteful New Green deal, EV mandate, open borders and inflation

Under Trump I'd rather discuss the merits of tariffs to force trade negotiations, or do trade negotiations have to come first?
What im saying is if you focus on gaffes -and Biden was a gaffe machine - chance are you are not doing a deep dive into policy
same with Trump or any politician

Besides who remembers Bidens gaffes now? and who will recall Trump's off the wall stuff?
Bottom line: it matters little what any of them say. It's what they do is the measure

 

[Mr Person]

I don't know about kicked out, but Menendez and his wife are going to jail and everyone on the left I saw called for it.

Meanwhile, scum of the Earth MAGAs... . well.. you know

It used to be that people would hold political beliefs. Now all most people, yourself included, have is to be against something. Being for something requires a strength of conviction that is beyond too many people. Being against something just requires whining and crying ability, which thankfully you have in spades.

 

[Yakshi]

Carville's right, and his point isn't controversial.
